The Visa freeski halfpipe finals presented by The North Face are scheduled to go off Friday evening—the last Olympic halfpipe qualifiers of the season.

The U.S. men and women dominated the Toyota U.S. Grand Prix freeski halfpipe qualifiers on Wednesday, with the men sweeping all finals spots, led by Gus Kenworthy (Telluride, Colo), and the women grabbing five of the eight spots, led by Maddie Bowman (South Lake Tahoe, Calif.).

David Wise (Reno, Nev.) and Bowman have already clinched their spots to defend their respective 2014 Olympic gold medals, but two more objective spots are on the line for both men and women. 

Both Alex Ferreira (Aspen, Colo.) and Torin Yater-Wallace (Basalt, Colo.) would confirm their spots with a win, while on the women’s side, Brita Sigourney (Carmel, Calif.) and Devin Logan (West Dover, Vt.) would confirm with a first or second place.

Live stream the halfpipe finals at 9:20 p.m. ET, or watch the broadcast at 1:00 a.m. ET on NBCSN.

The U.S. Freeski Team halfpipe Olympic team nominations presented by Visa will occur Saturday night.
